Answer

GROUT

Grout is a dense fluid mixture used to fill gaps and seal joints, most commonly seen between ceramic tiles. The word comes from the Old English 'grut' meaning coarse meal, referring to its grainy texture before setting. While white and gray are most popular, modern grout comes in many colors to complement different tile designs.
